The Ateneo Bulatao Center’ Community-Based Services (CBS) is opening its Katatagan Plus Program to the Filipino community!
Are you interested in improving your resilience to prepare for the upcoming semester? If so, sign up for our FREE Katatagan Plus program!
Katatagan Plus is an evidence- and community-based mental health and early intervention program for individuals at risk for mental health issues. The program uses a bio-psycho-social-spiritual framework and aims to help individuals experiencing adversity develop adaptive coping skills such as emotion regulation, stress management, interpersonal skills and problem-solving skills in order for them to become more resilient. These skills can help in managing challenges both in the short and long term.
The program will be conducted online for 8 modules facilitated once a week, on weekends from September until November. Certificates of completion will be given to those who complete all 8 sessions and the pre- and post-test evaluations. Please note that this program is not a replacement for psychotherapy.

If you have any questions, please message us on Facebook or send an email to community.bulataocenter@ateneo.edu . We look forward to helping you!
